Every year Walmart sets up for Christmas a littler earlier than the year before. We here at Santa’s Workshop in the NorthPole co-ordinate with retailers from all over the world in order to run a successful holiday season. Officially, the holiday season start is November 1st. But every year now it has crept up sooner and sooner. Now, we peg the official start to Christmas at September 24th.
However, competition is competition. We do love Walmart for their unflagging support for Santa. We just wish they - and everyone else - would hold off on the Christmas run until October.
As for Santa and everyone up here at the workshop, we’re busy, busy, busy and looking forward to another wonderful holiday season.
